My family distributes electricity to most of Nigeria – Davido claims

Nigerian singer, David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has claimed that his family is responsible for distributing electricity to a major portion of Nigeria.

According to him, his family owns four power plants, which significantly contribute to Nigeria’s energy needs.

Appearing on an American podcast, ‘Business Untitled,’ Davido spoke on his family's business and personal investments.

He said, “I once ventured into cryptocurrency because Nigeria is big on crypto. Apart from that, me and my family have like four power plants worth a lot of money. We distribute energy to most of Nigeria.

“My wife is into culinary. We are trying to start a restaurant for her. But my main business is what I love; “my music.”

While Davido is from a wealthy family with investments in the energy sector, some netizens have disagreed with his claims that his family supplies most of Nigeria’s energy needs.

Also, checks reveal that the major thermal and hydroelectricity plants in Nigeria are owned by the government.
